Nighthawk M1 Ethernet Port Timeout
Hi, We have a M1 Router which we are testing before purchasing more. Everything that we use if for seems ok with one exception. The Ethernet port seems to go in to some standby mode after reboot o...
Mine here are :
Firmware Version NTG9X50C_10.20.05.02

My Ethernet port still goes to sleep on reboot and possibly even a cell tower change? Randomly occurs and connected uptime timer resets.
This on new firmware on AT&T, version NTG9X50C_12.02.06.00 and have Ethernet Sleep set to disabled.

- Anyone have any work arounds to have the ethernet port be active on reboot, loss of signal??
